The costs and benefits of sunflower pollen diet on bumble bee colony disease and health
Ecosphere, 12(7).
author keywords: bee health; conservation; disease ecology; parasitology; pollination biology; pollination services; tri-trophic interactions
TL;DR:
Evidence is provided that sunflower pollen as part of a mixed pollen diet can reduce infection in individual bees and whole colonies with no significant nutritional trade-offs for colony worker production and most aspects of colony reproduction.

Queen honey bees exhibit variable resilience to temperature stress
PLOS ONE, 16(8).
MeSH headings : Acclimatization / physiology; Animals; Bees / physiology; Biomarkers / metabolism; Cell Survival; Female; Gene Expression Regulation; Hot Temperature; Insect Proteins / metabolism; Male; Mass Spectrometry; Ovum / metabolism; Proteomics / methods; Spermatozoa / metabolism; Spermatozoa / physiology
TL;DR:
It is found that cold stress, but not heat stress, reduced stored sperm viability; however, there was no significant effect of temperature stress on any other recorded metrics (queen mass, average callow worker mass, laying patterns, the egg proteome, and queen spermathecal fluid proteome).

Honey bee queen health is unaffected by contact exposure to pesticides commonly found in beeswax
SCIENTIFIC REPORTS, 11(1).
MeSH headings : Animals; Beekeeping; Bees / drug effects; Bees / physiology; Dose-Response Relationship, Drug; Environmental Exposure / adverse effects; Environmental Exposure / analysis; Fat Body / drug effects; Fat Body / metabolism; Female; Insect Proteins / drug effects; Insect Proteins / metabolism; Male; Oviposition / drug effects; Pesticide Residues / analysis; Pesticide Residues / toxicity; Pesticides / analysis; Pesticides / toxicity; Proteomics; Reproduction / drug effects; Sperm Count; Waxes / chemistry; Waxes / toxicity
TL;DR:
It is suggested that previously reported associations between high levels of pesticide residues in wax and queen failure are most likely driven by indirect effects of worker exposure (either through wax or other hive products) on queen care or queen perception.

Climate change is creating a mismatch between protected areas and suitable habitats for frogs and birds in Puerto Rico
Campos-Cerqueira, M., Terando, A. J., Murray, B. A., Collazo, J. A., & Aide, T. M. (2021, July 27). BIODIVERSITY AND CONSERVATION, Vol. 7.
author keywords: Species of greatest conservation need; Passive acoustic monitoring; Climate change; Niche modeling; Species distribution models; Protected areas
TL;DR:
The results indicate that present protected areas will not suffice to safeguard bird and frog species under climate change; however, the establishment of larger protected areas, buffer zones, and connectivity between protected areas may allow species to find suitable niches to withstand environmental changes.

Physiological mediators of prenatal environmental influences in autism spectrum disorder
Frye, R. E., Cakir, J., Rose, S., Palmer, R. F., Austin, C., & Curtin, P. (2021, July 14). BIOESSAYS.
author keywords: air pollution; autism spectrum disorder; epigenetics; inflammation; microbiome; mitochondria; oxidative stress; pesticides; prenatal environment
MeSH headings : Air Pollution; Autism Spectrum Disorder / genetics; Epigenesis, Genetic; Female; Humans; Inflammation; Oxidative Stress; Pregnancy
TL;DR:
Network analysis of the scientific literature identified several leading prenatal environmental factors associated with ASD, particularly air pollution, pesticides, the microbiome and epigenetics, which were found to be most associated with inflammation, followed by oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction.

MeSH headings : Animals; Bees / microbiology; Behavior, Animal; Disease Transmission, Infectious; Flowers / microbiology; Host Microbial Interactions; Pollination
TL;DR:
There is a near-absence of experimental manipulations of floral traits to determine causal effects on transmission, and a need to understand how floral, microbe and host traits interact to mediate transmission.

Impacts of detritivore diversity loss on instream decomposition are greatest in the tropics
NATURE COMMUNICATIONS, 12(1).
MeSH headings : Animals; Biodiversity; Biomass; Biota; Body Size; Chironomidae / physiology; Climate; Ecosystem; Ephemeroptera / physiology; Insecta / physiology; Plant Leaves / chemistry; Rainforest; Rivers / chemistry; Rivers / microbiology; Rivers / parasitology; Rivers / virology; Tropical Climate; Tundra
TL;DR:
The results suggest that litter decomposition might be altered by detritivore extinctions, particularly in tropical areas, where detritvore diversity is already relatively low and some environmental stressors particularly prevalent.

The toughest animals of the Earth versus global warming: Effects of long-term experimental warming on tardigrade community structure of a temperate deciduous forest
Vecchi, M., Kossi Adakpo, L., Dunn, R. R., Nichols, L. M., Penick, C. A., Sanders, N. J., … Guidetti, R. (2021, June 29). ECOLOGY AND EVOLUTION, Vol. 6.
author keywords: climate change; experimental; global warming; Tardigrades; water bears
TL;DR:
Results are in line with previous experimental studies, indicating that tardigrades may not be directly affected by ongoing global warming, possibly due to their thermotolerance and cryptobiotic abilities to avoid negative effects of stressful temperatures, and the buffering effect on temperature of the soil litter substrate.
